American and Utah resident Kurt Cochran was killed yesterday after a terrorist used his vehicle to ram a number of people walking on the Westminster Bridge in London. His wife Melissa was seriously injured and remains in the hospital.
"Our family is heartbroken to learn of the death of our brother and son-in-law Kurt Cochran, who was a victim of Wednesday's terrorist attack in London. Kurt was a good man and a loving husband to our sister and daughter, Melissa," the family released in a statement Thursday. "Melissa also received serious injuries in the attack, and is being cared for in the hospital."
A great American, Kurt Cochran, was killed in the London terror attack. My prayers and condolences are with his family and friends.
